Indians may not be done working deals and shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera could be the next one traded. To complete the trade, the Indians will send the Reds about $3.5 million to account for the differences in the projected salaries between Choo and Stubbs.

Choo, who played right field for the Indians and is entering free agency in 2013, will likely play center field and bat leadoff for the Reds. Choo hit .283 with 16 homers and 67 RBIs in 155 games last season.

Stubbs batted .213 with 14 homers and 40 RBIs, and but also struck out 166 times in 493 at-bats.
